This issue continues and it seems I got lucky one time.

Iv'e narrowed it down to the make map function. Once I make the map, it's blank when I open it in paint. Grid lines show but no land mass or anything else.

I'll continue some testing later and see what I can discover.

I may try to re-download the editor.

I hate to say it again since you already said that you have done this but........  remember to have "grid" checked in the Terrain Window Options like mrmidi showed in his pic.  

I'm not trying to be insulting in any way by repeating this and only do it because I have missed that step so many times, so I know how easy it is to forget, not to mention it sounds exactly like your problem.

If your sure that you have checked this option then zip the folder and put it here so those that have more knowledge may be able to help figure things out for you.

I understand completely and am not insulted.

As it turns out, there was something screwy going on with the editor.

After uninstalling it completely and downloading it again, it is working properly  :aok

Iv'e tested it a few times and no longer have the problem.

Thanks for everything guys . Now that I have that figured out, I can start practicing more in depth stuff with the editor, so I'm sure I'll have more questions.
